ОглавлениеIt was agreed that my endeavours should be directed to persons and characters supernatural, or at least romantic, yet so as to transfer from our inward nature a human interest and a semblance of truth sufficient to procure for these shadows of imagination that willing suspension of disbelief, for the moment, which constitutes poetic faith.
Samuel Taylor Coleridge, 1817

Die Bybel, 1953-vertaling, Job, 32:8
